Robbyn Howard Obituary
In Loving Memory of Robbyn Howard
On February 10, 2024, Heaven gained a truly sweet and loving soul as Robbyn Howard, age 51, passed away in Dalton, Georgia. Born in Gainesville, Florida to Parker Harris and Marilyn Harris, Robbyn's life was a beautiful tapestry of faith, family, and unfaltering love.
Robbyn's heart belonged to her beloved husband, Ronald "Buddy" Lee Howard Jr. Their marriage was a beacon of love and companionship, a testament to the deep connection they shared. Above all, Robbyn treasured her family and her unwavering relationship with Jesus. Her infectious laughter had the magical ability to brighten even the darkest of days, and her kindness left an indelible mark on everyone blessed to know her.
In the embrace of Jesus and the beauty of Heaven, Robbyn is reunited with her father, Parker Harris, brothers James Harris and Robert Harris, sister Cherrie Robinson, grandfathers Lamar Snyder and James Harris, and grandmother Bessie Harris. Their spirits now dance together in a place of everlasting peace.
Left to carry on her legacy are her devoted husband, Ronald "Buddy" Lee Howard Jr., and her loving mother, Marilyn Harris. Robbyn's nurturing spirit lives on in her sons, David Parker Loach and Caleb Lee Howard, and her daughters, Kami Brooke Loach and Kaylee Dawn Howard. She is also remembered fondly by her siblings: David Harris, Dawn Creekmore, Terry Harris, Jane Perkins, and Raymond Ward. The pitter-patter of joy in the family continues with the presence of her grandson, Henry Parker Loach.
Visitation to celebrate Robbyn's life will be held on Friday, February 16, 2024, from 12:00 PM to 3:00 PM at Companion Funeral and Cremation Service, Chattanooga Chapel.
The funeral service, a celebration of the beautiful life of Robbyn Howard, will take place at 3:00 PM on the same day at Companion Funeral and Cremation Service, Chattanooga Chapel.

Robbyn's memory is not just a moment in time but a melody of love that will resonate in the hearts of all who were touched by her warmth. May she rest in the sweet embrace of eternal peace.
